i live really close to one in a town that i just moved to...thought it might be interesting to go and see what kind of horseshit the local dubs are getting these days, what the general mood is, etc.

i haven't set foot inside one for almost 30 yrs.

and wonder if i would notice any changes in witlessville.. wg

( a really long and sad story ) ......if this was a suicide.... where was his support system.... his family..... his congregation ....????? out in service trying to save all the lost ones........when many of the lost ones are right in the congregation...??? I have heard of soo many young ones... feeling soo alone ,,,, I live close to where this happened and it touches my heart to tears..... I feel so for the family,,, i have a poem i think is appropriate for this sad situation called TIME TO HEAL ;;;;;;;THE LESS BROKEN HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF THE MORE BROKEN,,BUT WHERE DO WE FIT IN .... A LOOK, A SIGH, A CHANCE TO BEGIN,,,, TO SEE THE PAIN INSIDE,,,,TO CARE WITHOUT COMMITTMENT,,, TO COMMITT WITHOUT A CARE...DARE WE SAY WE WILL BE THERE,,, TO CALM OUR BROTHERS FEARS.....DON'T JUDGE ME FOR THE WAY I SEEM,,,, THE MASK I WEAR IS REAL....JUST REALIZE THAT FOR ALL ITS WORTH.........THE BROKEN NEED TIME TO HEAL thanks for listening to my poem ,,,, i write to make sense out of what makes no sense in this world....

the jw's have dropped costs, and there will be no exchange of money.

Do A Number of Jehovah's Witnesses Have A Drinking Problem???

by minimus in

jw
friends

jw's can't do this.

they can't do that.

restrictions abound.

wildfire

wow does this bring back memories...... my daughter and her best friend would stay at her house and her dad was always wasted......he even would drink nyquil... he had bottles of it stashed every where......but as the pendulum swings..... there were never 2 eyewitnesses to his (problem) so to this day,,,,he contributes his hush money to the building up of the flock,,, in all their dysfunctional, hypocritical ways....... and then there was the MS who would come to the book study and reek of alcohol......and of course his answers were long,,, drawn out and completely meaningless ( except to him),,,but the hilarious part is when his wife would come slithereing into the meeting late.... with a look at him that could turn him into stone....hahahaha i could really see a sitcom coming out of all of this craziness some day ,,, cant you well don't you all know that smoking and premarital sex is much more of a serious sin than drunkedness,,,,,and heaven forbid if you have a mental illness like depression... like they say your days are numbered......but the bible says drink alittle wine for your frequent cases of sickness,,,,hmmmm i thought drunkedness was the sickness,,,,,,,just my observations of AS THE WORLD TURNS IN JW LAND.......TAKE CARE ALL

Roots

by Xena in

in speaking with some people the other day i realized i have no roots....no long term frienships....no family connections.

i went to a party and almost all of the people there knew each other from high school or college or family friends.

i felt so out of place.

wildfire

XENA,,,, I TRULY ENJOYED YOUR COMPANY WHEN I WAS VISITING AUSTIN LAST MONTH.. I JUST WISH I COULD HAVE SPENT MORE TIME WITH YOU... I THINK THE PROBLEM TODAY IS WE NEVER REALLY HAVE THE TIME TO GET TO KNOW PEOPLE . I HAVE BEEN ALONE FOR ALMOST 13 YEARS SINCE MY DIVORCE ,,, AND SINCE I HAVE BROKEN FREE FROM THE WATCHTOWER CHAIN OF OPPRESSION I HAVE COME TO SEE THE TRUE BEAUTY AND SENSIBILITY OF WHAT THIS OLE WORLD CAN OFFER.....I WRITE, I SING, I WALK ALONE AND DREAM OF WHAT I CAN BECOME ,,AND NOW I FEEL LIKE I CAN BE CONTENT WITH WHO I REALLY AM ... HERE IS A POEM I WROTE..CALLED TIME TO HEAL;;THE LESS BROKEN HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF THE MORE BROKEN,,BUT WHERE DO WE FIT IN? A LOOK, A SIGH, A CHANCE TO BEGIN,,, TO SEE THE PAIN INSIDE,, TO CARE WITHOUT COMMITTMENT,, TO COMMITT WITHOUT A CARE,, DARE WE SAY WE WILL BE THERE TO CALM OUR BROTHER'S FEARS....DONT JUDGE ME FOR THE WAY I SEEM.. THE MASK I WEAR IS REAL...... JUST REALIZE FOR ALL ITS WORTH THE BROKEN NEED TIME TO HEAL.....AND YOU LEARN THAT EVEN SUNSHINE BURNS IF YOU ASK TOO MUCH , SO PLANT YOUR OWN GARDEN AND DECORATE YOUR OWN SOUL INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BRING YOU FLOWERS( THIS LAST SENTENCE WAS NOT PART OF MY ORIGINAL POEM ,,, I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD ENDING THOUGHT.) TAKE CARE DEAR XENA,, WARRIOR PRINCESS OF THE NIGHT........ SHALOM

as some of you know i have been have a few health problems lately.. i went to the doctor today to pick up my application for a handicapped parking permit.

when we talked he said he would sign it for a year.. well he signed it as "permanent disability".

in one way this is good because if they don't figure out the problem and find a solution i won't have to keep applying for it.

MY First Post

by Prudence in

jw
friends

i'm new here and just wanted to say hello to everyone.. i walked away a few years ago, i just couldn't believe the new light on the generation they are forcing on .

teaching people.

i also got burned - out on all the gossip and the other social garbage.

wildfire

DEAR PRUDENCE,,,, A WARM WELCOME AND ((((( HUG))))) TO YOU... WILDFIRE HERE... believe me you have come to the right place, if you read my biography you will see what torture and mayhem i have gone thru... being married to an annointed one for 10 yrs, ( i could write a book ).... I have come to know some great and caring people here ...the warm,, cool tropical air of friendship is soo much better than the frigid, sterile.,, stench of the putrid prison walls of a windowless kingdumm hall.. with all its subordinate, perfunctory, loveless robots inside......( hey i learned some big words in theocronic misery school hahahhahh) hey a dictionary would help out here, so feel free to check it out .... P.s I am an aspiring writer of sorts and a poet so ,, I get carried away from time to time.....we all need our dreams to come true ,,,so true to our dreams we never stop our quest to SEIZE THE DAY !!!!!!!!
